Air Entrainment Meters for MortarEN 1015-7, EN 459-2
Air entrainment meters for testing freshly-mixed mortar with direct readings in percent. Uses hand-operated pump. The H-2845 and H-2846 Air Meters are used for the determination of the total air content in cement paste, mortar and masonry cement. These meters have a pressure chamber, in which a defined pressure is generated. By open-ing the overflow valve, the pressure in the cham-ber is equalized within the sample container, which is filled with mortar. The pressure drop is a mea-surement of the air content present in the mortar. The accuracy of the pressure gauge is 1.0. Both air meters use pushbutton controls for simple test operation. Both meters use a mechanical valve to provide a reliable seal between the pressure chamber and test container. The pressure gauge is integrated in the top of the meter. Quick-release fasteners between the container and cover pro-vide easy sealing and opening of the meter. Both meters utilize a robust hand pump for operation independent of air supply system.

Blaine Air Permeability ApparatusASTM C204; AASHTO T153
The Blaine Air Permeability Apparatus determines the fineness of Portland cement in terms of specific surface area expressed as the total surface area in square centimeters per gram of mortar or cement. The Blaine works by drawing a definite quantity of air through of bed of cement exhibiting a definitive porosity value. The number and size of the pores in a prepared bed of definite porosity is a function of the size of the particles and determines the rate of airflow through the bed. This procedure is outlined in ASTM C204, Method A and AASHTO T153. The Humboldt Blaine Air Permeability Apparatus con-sists of: calibrated U-tube manometer, ground glass joint, stainless steel test cell and plunger, rubber aspirator bulb and perforated disc.

Multiple Bond Strength TesterASTM C1583, D4541, D7234, D7522; BS 1881 Part 207, EN 12004-2, 12002, 1324, 1542, 1015, 1348, 13892-8; DIN 1048-2, 13279-2, ISO 4624
Computer-aided multiple bond strength tester with force- or displacement-controlled test execu-tion and deformation measurement.
The Multiple bond strength tester is a comput-er-controlled hydraulically operated device with which several samples can be tested in a short sequence (approx. 20-25 pieces depending on the arrangement). The manual positioning of the pulling device is carried out on low-friction linear slides. Thus the tests can be carried out very com-fortably and quickly. The bond strength is deter-mined using a highly sensitive force transducer of class 0.2. A displacement measuring system is installed in the cylinder with which the deformation of the coating of the test specimen under load can be determined. The tests can be carried out both force- and displacement-controlled. All tests are recorded with software and can be subsequently analyzed and transferred to a freely configurable protocol. The graphical display of the measured value curve allows samples to be compared with each other at a glance. This makes the instrument suitable both for large laboratories with high testing volumes and for research facilities. The entire instrument is mounted on a stainless steel substructure in which the hydraulic and electrical components are installed. The hydraulic system is driven by a powerful radial piston pump. The electrical system is switched via a main switch with under-voltage release and the test can be inter-rupted immediately via an emergency stop button.
Both round and square samples of different sizes
can be tested (e.g. diameter 50 mm or 50 x 50 mm). The samples are attached to a support plate (e.g. concrete) with the dimensions 400 x 400 mm and then inserted into the device via a heavy-duty pull-out and clamped there. The replacement of the slabs takes less than one minute. Plates with thicknesses from 10 to 80 mm can be used for fixing the specimens. The device covers all inter-national standards and can also be configured for completely free test runs. This means that the device can also be used in the long term in case of any changes to standards. Standard configuration is 20kN, other load configurations are available, please enquire.

Tru-Wate Density BalanceASTM D4380
The TRU-WATE Mud Balance is an instrument for measuring the absolute density of a fluid sample. With the TRU-WATE Balance, the density of a fluid sample, such as cement slurry, can be measured in a fixed volume sample under pressure. By pres-surizing the sample cup the entrained air or gas can be decreased to a negligible volume, thus pro-viding a slurry density measurement more closely in agreement with the true density which will be realized under down-hole conditions. This den-sity balance is constructed of premium metals for durability, accuracy and ease of use. A high impact plastic case protects the balance during transport and provides a secure base in its working position.

Marsh Funnel ViscometerASTM D6910
The marsh funnel viscometer is a rugged, easy to operate instrument that is used for making rapid, on the spot measurements of drilling mud viscosity. Marsh funnel readings are only general measurements, but the frequent reporting of the marsh funnel viscosity will alert the mud engi-neer to sudden changes in the mud viscosity that could require corrective action. The marsh funnel Viscosity is the ratio of the speed of the mud as it passes through the outlet tube (the shear rate) to the amount of force— the weight of the mud itself, which is causing the mud to flow (the shear stress). marsh funnel viscosity is reported as the number of seconds required for one quart of mud to flow out of a full marsh funnel.
